This is the type of rugged terrain the say I was the "Maybe "I wouldn't bravest," says Dennis. the unluckiest." I have selected Dennis for the TV medal of valor because he is the fellow who has had to face Lucille Ball on an opposing net- work. In most locations "The Dennis Day Show' is on at the same time Monday night as "I Love Lucy." This took real nerve, since "Lucy" has drawn the big- gest audience in TV for the last two years. 'Believe me, it wasn't my idea to go opposite Lucy," Dennis told me. "I wanted to do my show on film. My sponsor, RCA, didn't want me to. The only way I could get permission was to agree to take the spot opposite Lucy. So I did it. "I took a chance and I failed. I think it was a mistake putting such a similar show opposite Lucy. TIME CHANGE NEXT YEAR The show has been dropped by RCA, but Dennis still is under contract to NBC, and will be back next season--in a different time islot, you can bet. 'Still, TI didn't do so badly," he added. "When 1 started out, the sponsor said if I hit a 7 rating, I'd be doing all right. If I made 14, I'd be a hero, and over 20 would be sensational. The show got up lo the 20s, so Wey can't com- ain. In Canada, where I don't {Rave to face Lucy, ours is the No. 1 show." In the United States, "I Love Lucy" has maintained a rating in the 60s, or roughly three times the Dennis Day audience. Industry ob- servers feel Day has definitely cut into the Lucy audience, since the show used to rate head-and-should- ers above its .competitors. Now it has to fight "Dragnet" for top honors. p.m. YWCA BADMINTON CLUB --| GIRLS 8 to 10 p.m. lose a cow with pneumonia and | almost another one.
